[QUOTE="steelfingers, post: 3866055, member: 38658"] You forgot to thank the one person that makes this a go or a no go. That's you buddy. We can all be wonderful, caring, tenders, watchers, come by everyday and check on you Saints but none of us has the ability to fix you but you. I pray for you every night. Been there done that. I had to reach down and check that I still had a couple and take care of business. It was harder to make reasons to drink than it was to just quit drinking. Seemed like I would spend a million reasons to (I hate this term) fall of the wagon. I looked and worked at it. When I finally figured out I wanted to fail because I wanted to drink, things kind of changed in my head. Remember your brain has to rewire itself to be the none drinker. It's true. You have to let yourself become the person you are. Not the guy you think you are, but the person you are. It'll be pretty cool too. One of the hardest things to get past is that excuse of "I don't know how to act sober or I don't know who the sober me is" ********. You will never be that guy. None of us are the same guy we were years ago. Even a few years ago. Time changes who you are. Drink just blurs a few of the lines. That's ok. The trail will find you. So....next time you think you need to thank someone....Start with YOU [/QUOTE]
